If you are 5'4 and below, you are considered short and because of your height, it could be a bit hard to dress for your frame.
So you need to learn to flatter your silhouette and with these expert styling tips, you would see a remarkable difference.
Vertical Lines - They can visually elongate your frame, making you appear taller and more slender. When shopping for striped pieces, opt for thinner stripes.

Hemlines - For skirts and dresses, one of the most flattering lengths for petite frames is just above the knee. This length allows more of your legs to be visible, creating a lengthening effect.
For trousers and jeans, consider styles that end just above the ankle.
High Waists - High-waisted jeans, skirts, and pants should be staples in your wardrobe. These pieces create the illusion of longer legs and a shorter torso, contributing to an overall taller appearance.
Accessories - When it comes to accessories, size matters, especially for petite frames. Opt for smaller handbags, delicate jewelry, and narrow belts to maintain balance in your overall look.

Prints - Favor smaller prints like micro-florals, polka dots, or geometric patterns that won't dominate your frame. Large prints can overwhelm a smaller frame.
V-Necklines - This type of neckline can make the neck appear longer, contributing to an overall taller silhouette.
Sleeve - For petite individuals, three-quarter sleeves or sleeves that end just above the wrist can be particularly effective in making your arms appear longer and, by extension, enhancing your overall silhouette. If you have a favorite top with sleeves that are too long, consider rolling or pushing them up to create a more tailored look.
Short women come in all shapes and sizes, from pear and apple to hourglass and rectangle, so when it comes to petite fashion, you need to tailor your wardrobe to your specific body type to elevate your look.
